Handle Assembly - Stiga Scm 240 R Gebrauchsanweisung

The machine is made up of a chassis fitted
with wheels and a handle. When the handle is
pushed by the operator the wheels activate a cut-
ting-means assembly enclosed in a safety guard.
The operator can run the machine from behind
the handle and consequently always stay at a safe
distance from the rotary cutting-means assembly.
When the operator stops pushing the machine,
the cutting-means assembly stops working.
Intended use
This machine has been designed and built to cut
(and collect) grass in gardens and lawns of a size
to match machine capacity. The machine is run by
an operator working on foot.
The cut grass is expelled and deposited directly
on the ground.
A grass collection sack (optional) may be used to
collect grass cuttings during use.
User types
This machine is designed for use by the general
public, i.e. non-professional operators using this
type of machinery for the first time and/or inexpe-
rienced. This machine is intended for "hobby use".
